Scouting report
Young is a heavy-footed infielder with thump and viable feel for contact, but rather than projecting him to play a viable second base as I have in the past, he now looks more like a 3B/LF sort, so he slides from the 40+ tier into the 40s this year. Though he does most of his damage on pitches on the inner half, Young has enough barrel control to spoil pitches away from him until he gets something he can square up. When Young connects, he does so with power. Buff and square-shouldered, Young's physicality is a driving component of his power but it's also why he's limited defensively. A 40 role-playing bat is a great outcome for a 37th rounder who signed for $3,000. (Alternate site, MLB)
